ok...
if this can be useful for somebody.
Finally, we can download the appropriate driver (cpqiss....), put it in a floppy and use it.
But, ... Centos can't use it...
We use a copy of RH Enterprise and all ran ok.
So, Centos is not 100% compatible.
And, now, RHEL don't recognize the Ethernet Card.
Maybe we will buy RHEL and get the appropriate driver for being totally operative.
I will keep you informed.
Or, if you have a better idea. I will appreciate it.
Thanks for all.

CentOs version: 4
the board is .... sorry man, the technician turned off the server and almost is at his house. I remember something like smart array ...200ex...
We are in Guatemala and this employee is not so enthusiastic, so ... we have to see it tomorrow morning... (sad)
and yes, we saw hp.com, but they suggest something with:
rpm .....
and, if we can't install CentOs, we cannot use rpm ... Dont' we?
Best regards,

We bought a Compaq ML350 G5.
When trying to install Centos, I got the message:
No disk installed. and centos suggest me a list of drivers, but none of them seems to work.
Has anybody tried this?
Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like you are using CentOS 4.0 ? Have you tried 4.4? If anything, maybe the HP driver disk will work with Cent 4.4 vs 4.0.
Ray
yes. that sounds fine.
I will try it.
by the way. what's the ultimate version of Centos?
I read somewhere that they are going for 5.x?
thanks.

There is no "ultimate" version of CentOS. There is a version corresponding to each RedHat Enterprise Linux version. There have been Versions 2.1, 3, 4, and very soon 5, all based on the same RedHat version. The minor numbers (IE the .4 in 4.4, etc.) correspond to the updated releases that RedHat does roughly twice a year. If you are trying to use a driver disk for RedHat, they usually mention which update set they are for.
I have 2 ML350's but they are the g4p variation. CentOS 4 runs great on them.
my fault. I expressed bad what I tried to say.
I understand, there is a Centos version for every RHEL version. Is'nt it?
Fine. And, (at least in theory), in binary every version corresponds to its counterpart.
But, ... maybe I am doing something bad. I'll double check.
I have four CD's corresponding to CentOs 4.0, and browsing the HP site, I found two posible drivers, one of them specifically for Smart Array e200i.
I downloaded it and made a diskette with dd= .....
Tried to install CentOs 4.0 with no success.
The same with RHEL 4.0 and everything is ok.
Maybe, ... CentOs is not version 4.0 ... hmm... maybe.
(but ,.... go man, ... double check ...) ..
It's inspiring you have two working machines with CentOs.
I will try again, .. and again.
(Sorry for these days of silence. Here in Guatemala these days are sacred, ... so. The office is closed. I am taking the rhytm again ... )
